A new song takes over the top spot this week!

G-Dragon scores his first No. 1 song in nearly eight years with “TOO BAD,” debuting all the way at No. 1. Congratulations to G-Dragon!

“TOO BAD” is the title song from G-Dragon’s third solo studio album “Übermensch.” “TOO BAD” contains a groovy drum beat and addictive hook, harmoniously combining G-Dragon’s rap with the vocals of Anderson .Paak, who features on the song.

IVE’s “REBEL HEART,” which previously topped the chart for five weeks, drops one spot to No. 2. Also down one spot to No. 3 is aespa’s “Whiplash.”

Two more songs newly entered the top 10 this week.

Entering at No. 4 is SM Entertainment’s new girl group Hearts2Hearts with their debut track “The Chase.” “The Chase” is a song with dreamy sounds that create a mysterious and intriguing atmosphere. The lyrics convey the confident message of creating one’s own path.

Moving up five spots to No. 8 is ZO ZAZZ’s “Don’t you know.” “Don’t you know” is a remake of Davichi’s song from 2013.

Helmed by “Infinite Challenge” PD Kim Tae Ho, “Good Day” is a music project where G-Dragon collaborates with various individuals from different fields to create the song of the year. Taking on the role of producer, G-Dragon will transform their stories into music, offering viewers an in-depth look at his creative process through a reality show format.

The new preview begins with G-Dragon meeting up with Defconn, Jung Hyung Don, and chef Ahn Sung Jae. G-Dragon gets excited about wearing matching pink colors with Jung Hyung Don and compliments him, but Jung Hyung Don playfully tells him that he is no longer going to play along with him.

Furthermore, G-Dragon reunites with fellow BIGBANG members Taeyang and Daesung for Taeyang’s concert. G-Dragon shares, “We have to do this together. I waited for you all. You have to give me inspiration.” Taeyang jokes, “I get the feeling that the song isn’t ready one bit,” and Daesung adds, “But he’s amazing at meeting deadlines.”

G-Dragon goes on to share his worries about producing a song that’s appropriate for all skill levels, asking his members for suggestions. Taeyang and Daesung throw out creative ideas, creating a lively atmosphere. G-Dragon remarks, “[This is why] I really like my team.”
